Eagles ILB Kiko Alonso (ACL) is "100 percent back" for OTAs.

Alonso is over 10 months removed from going under the knife, so it's not surprising he's ready to roll. Per reporter Jeff McLane, Alonso wasn't wearing a brace on Thursday. With DeMeco Ryans and Mychal Kendricks also at inside 'backer, the Eagles have a pile up, but Chip Kelly didn't acquire Alonso in the LeSean McCoy trade with an eye toward anything other than starting duties.

Alonso blew out his knee while working out on his own last offseason. The Eagles seem confident in his health, as they pinpointed him as a target in the LeSean McCoy trade. If Alonso and Mychal Kendricks are both right, they'll form a speedy and exciting inside linebacking duo for Chip Kelly. DeMeco Ryans (Achilles' tendon tear) is also in the mix. Mar 26 - 9:24 AM

In a trade no one saw coming, Eagles football czar Chip Kelly has reunited himself with one of his best college players. In the final stages of his recovery from a torn ACL, Alonso should line up opposite Mychal Kendricks. That would almost certainly spell the end of DeMeco Ryans' time in Philadelphia. Ryans is recovering from a torn Achilles' tendon. Alonso was one of the league's very best rookies in 2013, racking up 159 tackles, four interceptions and a forced fumble. Provided he's back to full health, he'll make plays all over the middle of the field for the Eagles. Mar 3 - 6:47 PM

Alonso enjoyed a dominant rookie season in 2013 (159 tackles, four INTs), but had his sophomore campaign stripped away because of a knee injury. Seven months after surgery, Alonso has progressed to rehabbing four to five times a week. Buffalo's front seven should be downright frightening with Alonso returning to the fold as long as it can also re-sign pass rusher Jerry Hughes. Feb 27 - 9:18 AM
